While bringing out this special publication, we were inspired tochoose these three heads to call for papers to make this special publication more focused and meaningful. Many knowledgeable writers sent their articles. We then added more sections “Water in MMR, Water and Technology, Water Pollution and Water Conservation.” Regrettably all the papers that we received cannot be published for lack of space. We have published 43 papers that will go on to make this special issue extremely informative. I am thankful to the Maharashtra Economic Development Council, Monthly Economic Digest July 2017 5 editorial committee for all the efforts that they took to read through and chose the papers that were received. I deeply appreciate the efforts of our staff – Sonali, Ananya, Sonam, Pooja, Swanandand our printers; who burnt the midnight oil to be able to publish this book on a time line that was advanced by seven days. In the last two decades or so, the subject of water has attracted public attention for all the wrong reasons. Famine, suicides, water tribunal awards, building dams and being left with no money for the canals and distribution systems, scams, scandals, corruption, inquiries, inability to recover costs, and agitations Some have chosen the subject of water for judicial activism to jump the band wagon of fast track to fame. It is indeed heartening to note that the watershed management in Maharashtra received a shot in the arm in the form of ‘Jala Yukta Shivar’ midcourse corrections that may be necessary. Much is talked about global warming, climate change and so on. These are large global subjects. We decided to start with the factors that are within our control. Some of them that are based on urban / human responsible action plan can be listed as: Reduction of consumptive use at individual and social level by metering usage; recycling at an affordable cost; saving good fresh water bodies from pollution so that they are available for use; ensuring ground water recharge by rain water harvesting. Minimizing urban surface water run off caused by end to end concrete / asphalt roads and parking grounds in all the commercial / housing complexes and so on. On a larger scale, we as a state and nation have to learn to do our watershed management to improving the soil moisture regime. other endemic plants thereafter with a provision for watch and do a special drive for the mapping and treatment of our natural drainage lines and water bodies. This will have to be based on engineering, bio-engineering, forestry and above all indigenous knowledge prevalent in of each agro-economic/ agro climatic zone.

  • Environmental Systems the Atmosphere and Hydrosphere
    Environmental Systems The atmosphere and hydrosphere THE ATMOSPHERE The atmosphere, the gaseous layer that surrounds the earth, formed over four billion years ago. During the evolution of the solid earth, volcanic eruptions released gases into the developing atmosphere. Assuming the outgassing was similar to that of modern volcanoes, the gases released included: water vapor (H2O), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrochloric acid (HCl), methane (CH4), ammonia (NH3), nitrogen (N2) and sulfur gases. The atmosphere was reducing because there was no free oxygen. Most of the hydrogen and helium that outgassed would have eventually escaped into outer space due to the inability of the earth's gravity to hold on to their small masses. There may have also been significant contributions of volatiles from the massive meteoritic bombardments known to have occurred early in the earth's history. Water vapor in the atmosphere condensed and rained down, of radiant energy in the atmosphere. The sun's radiation spans the eventually forming lakes and oceans. The oceans provided homes infrared, visible and ultraviolet light regions, while the earth's for the earliest organisms which were probably similar to radiation is mostly infrared. cyanobacteria. Oxygen was released into the atmosphere by these early organisms, and carbon became sequestered in sedimentary The vertical temperature profile of the atmosphere is variable and rocks. This led to our current oxidizing atmosphere, which is mostly depends upon the types of radiation that affect each atmospheric comprised of nitrogen (roughly 71 percent) and oxygen (roughly 28 layer. This, in turn, depends upon the chemical composition of that percent).

  • Introduction
    Introduction Mumbai, is one of its 10 mega cities of the world and business capital of India. Mumbai proper occupies a low-lying area that once consisted of seven islands called Colaba, Mazagaon, Old Woman's Island, Wadala, Mahim, Parel, and Matunga-Sion separated from each other only during high tide. The population has risen from merely 3 millions in 1951 to 12 millions as on 2002 out of which 50 % live in slums It also supports “daily commuting” population of 20 lakhs It covers an area of 437 sq.km. With average density of 36600 soul/ sq.km. Water Supply-From Past To Present Prior to 1870, the Mumbaikar used to drink water from the existing well, lakes and tanks. But during middle of nineteenth century, because of the epidemic, decision was taken to build a dam to supply good quality of potable water, and then onwards Bombay water works started functioning The history of Mumbai’s water supply dates back to the 22nd June 1845. On this day, the then Government in response to the agitation of the native appointed 2 men Commission to report about the quality and quantity of water available in Mumbai. The Commission reported back within 24 hours that the water supply of Mumbai needed immediate attention. This was the beginning of efforts to search sources of water to satisfy the City’s demand. It is the first city in India to receive piped water supply in the year 1860. Today it supplies 2950 MLD every day, is one of the largest water supply in Asia.

  • Being the Change for Bringing Change
    BEING THE CHANGE FOR BRINGING CHANGE Sir Ratan Tata Trust & Allied Trusts Annual Report 2017-2018 THE GUIDING PRINCIPLE OF TATA TRUSTS There is one kind of charity common enough among us, it is that patchwork philanthropy which clothes the ragged, feeds the poor, and heals the sick. I am far from decrying the noble spirit which seeks to help a poor or suffering fellow being. However, what advances a nation or a community is not so much to prop up its weakest and most helpless members, but to lift up the best and the most gifted, so as to make them of the greatest service to the country. ~ JAMSETJI TATA Sir Ratan Tata Trust & Allied Trusts | Annual Report 2017-2018 1 MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN The country today is reflective of both youthful energy and mature musings. As it is with the Trusts, which are balancing areas of national importance, with the work that began more than a century ago. The Trusts have endeavoured to be compassionate, harnessing creative thinking to achieve results desired by the beneficiaries. As they develop competence in executing projects at scale on ground, they are also acutely conscious of the strengths that lie in collaboratively working with like-minded partners to accelerate social change. It is this flexibility in approach that marks the signs of change. In the last year, the Trusts have undertaken work that may galvanise the way we address cancer care in the nation. The aim is to make specialised care accessible and to provide a uniform quality of treatment to all.
